Has anyone done any automation of tasks by monitoring /var/spool/mail/ mailboxes?<BR>
<BR>
As I have VDR shutting down between timers, I'd like to 'queue' an email request to automate a response containing all the current scheduled timers, and to add additional timers where requested.<BR>
<BR>
Idea would be to SMS a 'command' to an email gateway, which the VDR box (when it next turned on) could respond to and issue svdrp commands where needed.<BR>
<BR>
Does anyone know of any tools available to monitor and parse emails?&nbsp; Perhaps something the sourceforge, or even the this mail list uses to list subscribed lists etc???<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
Any thoughts?
